Well, a new year has come and gone.  We still can’t believe it’s 2010!!  We had a fantastic 2009, and shot a whole heap of pictures we really loved.  Special thanks to all of our clients from the past year.  You’ve allowed us into your lives and to capture precious moments in time that we are happy to say, will be yours to cherish forever.  So to begin this new and wonderful year, we have decided to do a little contest to have some fun and to give a little back to our wonderful clients.

We are asking you, cyber-world, to vote on which image you think  should qualify for our “wedding photo of the year 2009″.   Everyone’s invited to  cast your vote by leaving your name,  a comment and the image number or the name of the couple you are voting for (only 1 vote per IP address please) at the end of the post below.   Don’t worry if your votes don’t show immediately,  as we have to approve comments to keep the spam down — all votes will show within (at most) 12 hours of your comment being added.

Then as an added bonus we’ll be sending a free mounted print of the winner photo to the relevant couple after the winning votes have been cast.  This contest ends on February 15th, so cast your vote now!

We included a little blurb above each image to describe why we felt that it was the best.

So that’s it!  On your mark  . . . get ready . . . Vote!

Image #1 – BJ and Kristin were so in love.  We loved the genuine expression here, not to mention the beautiful lighting.

Image #2 – Have you ever wondered what look your father would give you if it was the last time he would be seeing you as his little girl?  We think this image of David and Ester’s says it all.

Image #3 – Keith and Erica wanted very dramatic images, which is why we fell in love with this particular image.  We love that it was so non-traditional, and the color gave it a very unique feel.

Image #4- This is the first time Jonathan, the groom, saw Carly, his bride, on their wedding day.  We think the look he has on his face expresses how much he’s looking forward to spending forever with her.

Image #5 – Jean Pierre and Eneida had a very emotional wedding!  We LOVE sunsets!  And this one with the gorgeous blue sky just had to be included!

Image #6 – We love using reflection as a way to make an image unique, or just to enhance the natural beauty of a bride.  It really makes this image from Justin and Melissa’s wedding stand out as different!

Image #7 – This is our favorite image from this wedding, hands-down.  So much emotion!  We thought this image told the story of what everyone felt on Dan and Karen’s Wedding day.

Image #8 – Don’t you just love the lighting of Travis and Liz’s reception venue, the Hilton in Silver Spring, MD?  We certainly did!  Add a gorgeous couple and bam!  you’ve got a fabulous image.

Image #9 – Marty and Sharon wanted unique images,  so that’s what we provided.  This was actually shot in the lobby of the hotel they were getting ready at.  We fell in love with this image as soon as we saw it on the back of our camera’s LCDs.

Image #10 – Chip and Mila had an absolutely gorgeous wedding!  The theme was cherry blossoms.  From the beginning of the day to the last dance, their wedding was beautiful and romantic.  It’s not hard to see why we love this image as it conveys the feel of richness and sophistication — just like their special day!

Image #11 – So, just in case you didn’t know, this wedding photography business is run by two women, and women love sunsets!  So we couldn’t help falling in love with this  image of one of our favorite couples, Van and Noelle! A sunset is truly unique — you will never see the same exact sunset twice.  Just like our our cool clients!

Image #12 – There’s always those times in a wedding that you just have to stop and laugh.  This was Bob and Priscilla’s first kiss as a married couple and they couldn’t tear their lips from each other.  So the officiant decided to give Bob, the groom, a little tap on the shoulder.  This moment as captured is truly priceless!

Image #13 – Ryan’s expression when he first saw Ashley, his bride, walking down the aisle, was truly precious.  We think he was awestruck!
